There are two modes of construction: layer construction and unit construction. For layer construction, cables are laid up in concentric layers to form a compact and circular cable. For unit construction, the elements shall be pairs and shall be laid up as units or sub-units. Each unit shall consist of 20 pair

Core Wrapping
Cable containing more than 12 wires has a polyester tape applied over the cable core prior to sheathing

Sheath
PVC TM51 to BS 7878 or equivalent. Grey, White or Cream colours are standard. LSZH option can be offered upon request
